Launched on Oct. 28, YouTube Red is a monthly subscription service for YouTube offered to people who want to enhance their viewing experience. This idea was first developed as YouTube Music Key, which lets customers listen to YouTube music videos without ads. However, the name was later changed to YouTube Red and the no ad feature was made available for all YouTube videos as long as one has a subscription. Right now, this service is only available in the U.S. Perhaps the biggest perk to YouTube Red is that endorsements have been blocked, but a subscription to this service does not really get rid of all the ads. Only ads on the YouTube website or ads in YouTube mobile applications will be gone. On the other hand, paid channels, purchases, or rentals may still have ads that come with the content. YouTube Red can be used on several devices including consoles like the Xbox One and Playstation 4, Android TV, Apple TV, Android, iOS, Chromecast, Roku, and some Smart TVs. Another huge benefit to this subscription is offline viewing. Viewers can download content that will stay available on the device for thirty days for one to watch at any time. Of course, not all features will be available with offline view-
ing. For instance, liking a video and making a comment on a video will not be available. Also convenient is the option to listen to videos with the screen off. When one is just listening
to the audio, the screen can be turned off and battery can be conserved. Not only will there be more features to the app, but there will also be exclusive content starting from the early months of 2016. Subscribers of YouTube Red will be able to see shows and movies from YouTubers in advance. Revealed works are “Scare PewDiePie” by PewDiePie, “A Trip to Unicorn Island” by IISuperwomanII, and “Sing It!” by the Fine Brothers. Not to worry, though. Eventually the exclusive content will be open to all YouTube users. Subscribing to YouTube Red comes with a free subscription to Google Play Music. Usually, the subscription fee for Google Play is ten dollars, but this gets two services for the price of one! Similarly, if one subscribes to Google Play Music, he or she will get access to YouTube Red also. The subscription fee for YouTube Red is also just $10 a month, and people can register for a free trial for a one month period. All in all, YouTube Red is an upgrade of the regular YouTube service that offers great benefits at an affordable cost. klo@apachepowwow.com Graphic courtesy of WIRED.CO.UK Photo courtesy of GIZMODO.COM
